Easy Tile Art for Kids That Everyone Will Enjoy

My kids are loving art lately, and I have to say I am totally embracing their creativity and letting them make new things every day. As much as I’d love to tell you I’m always like this, I’m not. I think a big part of enjoying it now is teaching the kids the steps in preparing for a project and cleaning up afterward. This way they can help with the whole process. This super cool tile art for kids is perfect. It’s fun, easy to do and they turn out beautiful.

Easy Ceramic Tile Art for Kids – That Everyone Will Enjoy

Using a spoon or straw, put little puddles of alcohol all over the colored tile. Do not add to much alcohol at once or the color will all run together and get muddy. Make sure to add just a little bit at a time all over and let the drops/puddles naturally run into each other. (Kids can also use a dropper)

Ceramic Tile Art

Using a spoon or straw, put Little puddles of alcohol all over the colored tile. Do not add to much alcohol at once or the color will all run together and get muddy. Make sure to add just a little bit at a time all over and let the drops/puddles naturally run into each other.

The tile will be mostly covered in alcohol at this point.

Let dry for 1-2 hours. As tiles are drying, you can add a few drops of alcohol in areas that fade out more than others so they will keep the mosaic look.

*Optional instead of waiting for the alcohol to dry you can use a lighter to burn the alcohol off (adult job – make sure to do this step in a safe place)

Use for display or great for coasters!! My husband even suggested using them for a backsplash 🙂

We just bought the items for this project today to let my kids create coasters for their grandmothers (and myself) for Mother’s Day. We found hexagon shaped tiles that my older daughter liked better than the square ones. Really excited to do this! Also we got a couple of bigger ones for them to do a trivet too!!
